Questions where prime numbers play a key-role, such as: questions on the distribution of prime numbers (twin primes, gaps between primes, Hardy–Littlewood conjectures, etc); questions on prime numbers with special properties (Wieferich prime, Wolstenholme prime, etc.). This tag is often used as a specialized tag in combination with the top-level tag nt.number-theory and (if applicable) analytic-number-theory.

Do primes of the form $4k+1$ ever lead the greatest prime factor race?
Analogous to Chebyshev's race between primes, I examined the race between primes in the greatest prime factors, GPF, of natural numbers. Similar to the regular prime race, in the GPF race, the proport …

How soon can we represent a number as the sum of two primes?
Posting in MO since it was unanswered in MSE.
Goldbach's conjecture says that every even number can be represented as the sum of two primes. But how soon can we find such a representation. Taking $20 …

Let $f(x)$ be the number of digits in the decimal representation of $x$ e.g. $, f(0) = 1, f(1729) = 4$. If $n = ab$ then we can show that $f(ab) > f( …

Why is there an unexpected increase in the density of certain types of Goldbach primes?
Note: Posted in MO since it was unanswered in MSE.
I was checking how quickly we can verify Goldbach's conjecture for a given even number $n$ and it was clear that searching backward starting from the …

Relation between $\pi$, area and the sides of Pythagorean triangles whose hypotenuse is a pr...
Consider all Pythagorean triangles $a^2 + b^2 = p^2$ in which the hypotenuse $p$ is a prime number. Let $h(x) = \sum_{p \le x}p^2$, $a(x) = \sum_{p \le x}ab$ and $r(x) = \sum_{p \le x}(a+b)^2$. Is it …

Primes which do not divide certain homogeneous polynomials
It is known that if $x^2 + y^2 = z^2$ is a primitive Pythagorean triplet then $z$ is not divisible by any prime of the form $4k-1$. The following is a generalization of this classical result which sh …

Is every integer $\ge 312$ the sum of two integers with triangular divisors?
We say that a natural number $n$ has triangular divisors if it has at least one triplet of divisors $n = d_1d_2d_3$, $1 \le d_1 \le d_2 \le d_3$, such that $d_1,d_2$ and $d_3$ form the sides of a tria …
